Japan tourism still suffers from a credit card gap
In a letter to the editor published in the June 23 Tokyo Shimbun, the writer relates an anecdote about two American women who while waiting at Narita Airport for a connecting flight to the states after arriving in transit from a vacation in Southeast Asia, decided to kill time by taking in a local onsen (hot spring bath). After checking the Internet with whatever mobile devices they had with them, they found that the nearest one was at Shimosa Manzaki station, one stop away from the Narita city terminal on the JR Narita Line. Since they weren't going to be in Japan long they didn't bother getting yen, and were able to buy JR train tickets with their credit cards. They could also use their cards at the onsen itself.
However, when they went back to Shimosa Manzaki station to make the return trip to the airport after their bath they discovered that their credit cards were no good. Neither the ticket vending machine in the station nor the employee selling tickets at the window would accept them. The letter writer happened to be at the station at the time and understood English. She was kind enough to buy them tickets so that they could get back in time to catch their flight.
This incident highlights a major gap in the government's plan to increase foreign tourism in Japan. Last year, for the first time ever, the number of foreign visitors exceeded 10 million, thus encouraging the Japan National Tourism Organization to aim for 20 million by 2020, the year Tokyo will host the summer Olympic Games. Significantly, 80 percent of the tourists who came to Japan last year were individual travelers, meaning they didn't come as members of organized tours. Individual travelers book their own accommodations and arrange their own transportation with the idea of playing things by ear and enjoying their travels at their own pace.
Credit and debit cards make it easier since they allow for more flexibility than cash or travelers checks, which have to be purchased through foreign exchange outlets. As we've mentioned before, most Japanese bank ATMs don't accept foreign credit cards, but even more vexing for individual tourists is that many Japanese businesses, including some who cater to tourists and especially those outside the large metropolitan areas don't accept credit cards.
Hotels tend to be OK, but as the two American women who visited Shimosa Manzaki found out, a lot of transportation outlets aren't. As far as JR goes, larger stations in the cities accept credit cards, but most others don't. If you're buying a shinkansen ticket, it's usually OK to use a credit card, even with the special vending machines, but the Midori Kenbaiki, the special vending machines for long-distance travel, are complicated to use even for Japanese and don't have English instructions.
Foreign tourists can buy Pasmo and Suica prepaid IC cards just like Japanese residents do, and they certainly make life easier, but both cards require a ¥500 deposit that may put some tourists off. Both cards can also be tied in with credit cards so that they recharge automatically when their value drops to almost nothing, but that option is not available to tourists. Mitsubishi Research has found that almost 90 percent of the travelers it surveyed from Taiwan, South Korea and the U.S. buy some sort of transportation pass, be it the JR rail pass or one-day Metro tickets, so obviously it is the sort of service that's appreciated. But while these same people express a high level of satisfaction for the transportation service that's offered, they also find it difficult to make sense of the network.
Specifically, they have difficulty figuring out how to get to specific destinations and how to buy tickets, especially from vending machines, even when English explanations are available. Moreover, while they appreciate the various passes on offer, they don't often know which one is best for their needs. In Tokyo, should they buy one-day passes for both subway lines or just one?
The research arm of Mitsubishi UFJ found that 88 percent of foreign tourists use guidebooks, maps, smart phone apps or some combination of the three, but they would like to be able to do everything using their mobile devices. Some businesses have already said they plan to increase the number of free wi-fi hot spots by 2020, which is a good start. But making it easier to use credit cards more flexibly would also be a big incentive for visitors since it would save them time, trouble and maybe even money.

If you have ever built a Lowrider, then you know things do not always go according to plan. No matter how carefully you plan a build, something is bound to go wrong. Delays are common and setbacks can only be expected in our world. Nevertheless, we move past them and continue on with dedication and enthusiasm. Raul Ramirez has been Lowriding since the 1960's. As a young man, he would help his cousin who was a member of the Mopar Men Car Club clean his car on Sundays with the hope that he would be rewarded with a seat in the car to cruise Whittier Boulevard. Raul's passion continued from those humble beginnings and he has built a slew of cars over the years. His 1938 Chevy is his latest build, which was built over a number of years and had setbacks of its own.
The car was purchased in 1987 after he saw a 'for sale' advertisement in the Recycler Magazine. Raul and his friend, Big Bob Perez, drove to Pacoima, California to check it out. The car was complete, but the brakes were frozen. Raul bought the thirty-eight, fixed the brakes and made his way back home. On the way home the brakes went completely out on him, but he still managed to make it home using the hand brake! Once the car was home, Raul parked it while he completed a couple of other builds he was working on. Like a true car fanatic, Raul was working on multiple projects at the time of purchase!
As stated in the opening paragraph of the feature, setbacks are to be expected when building a car. For Raul, a couple of those setbacks almost deterred him from finishing the restoration of the Chevy. Raul had purchased a Hampton interior kit that his father installed when he first brought the car. The car was put away for a few years so when he went to finish the restoration, he found that moths had eaten through the Hampton interior, even though precautions were taken when the car went into storage. That interior could not be repaired, so Raul purchased another one to replace it even though it was twice the cost of what the first kit originally cost him. This would not be the only setback, however. Raul and his friend, Robert Cobla, did all of the disassembly and bodywork in his back yard and driveway. After the car was reassembled and prepped for paint, a paint booth was rented to spray the car. A tow truck picked up the car and delivered it to the spray booth, but Raul and Robert found that the ramp from the tow truck and damaged the fresh body work they had just completed, so the decision was made to take the car back home and fix it.
Once the body was repaired, Raul and Robert decided to spray the car in the driveway to ensure no more mishaps. Thankfully, it was smooth sailing from there, and Raul took the car out for its maiden voyage on his birthday to the Los Angeles Department of Water & Power's annual Christmas car show, where it won Best of Show in the Original class. It was a great birthday present and a great feeling to win the first time out after the setbacks Raul experienced.
Raul would like to thank his wife, Mary, and his family and close friends for keeping him motivated to finish the build. Robert Cobla, Joe Epstein, Tutu, and Mike Perez also get special thanks for their help with the build. We here at Lowrider Magazine would like to thank Raul for not giving up on the thirty-eight and getting another classic Chevrolet on the road!

BEIJING — Police announced Wednesday the arrests of five people in connection with this week's suicide car crash in the heart of China's capital, calling it a planned terror attack — Beijing's first in recent history — and identifying the attackers as members of a Muslim minority.
Police said the five suspects were detained the same day as the Monday noon attack at the Forbidden City gate across from Tiananmen Square, in the culturally and politically sensitive section of Beijing where China's Communist Party leaders live and work.
A statement on the Beijing police microblog said the perpetrators had also been identified as a man with an ethnic Uighur name, his wife and his mother. The five suspects arrested on suspicion of conspiring in the attack also were identified with typically Uighur names.
An attack in one of the eastern population centers is "something that the Chinese authorities have been worried about for a long time," said University of Michigan expert Philip Potter.
"Once this threshold has been crossed, it is a difficult thing to constrain," Potter said, predicting tighter surveillance and scrutiny of Uighurs in eastern cities.
All three attackers died when their vehicle exploded beneath the portrait of Mao Zedong hanging from Tiananmen Gate. Two tourists, including a Filipino woman, were killed by the vehicle as it sped down a crowded sidewalk, and 38 people were injured, including three Filipino citizens and a Japanese man.
Knives, iron rods, gasoline and a flag imprinted with religious slogans were found in the vehicle, police said.
Uighurs (pronounced WEE-gur) are Muslim Turks native to the restive northwestern region of Xinjiang where extremists opposed to Chinese rule have been battling security forces for years.
The statement said the five detained had helped plan and execute the attack, and were caught 10 hours after it was carried out. It said they had been on the run and were tracked down with the help of police in Xinjiang and elsewhere. It didn't say where they were captured, but said police had found jihadi flags and long knives inside their temporary lodgings.
"The initial understanding of the police is that the Oct. 28 incident is a case of a violent terrorist attack that was carefully planned, organized and plotted," the statement said.
The attack appears to mark a new boldness on the part of militants inspired by radical Islam and follows a particularly bloody summer of clashes in Xinjiang, including an attack on a police station, that have left at least 56 people dead this year. The government typically calls the incidents terrorist attacks.
China has up to now been largely successful at limiting both the volume and effectiveness of domestic terrorist attacks, while containing them mainly to Xinjiang. However, the Chinese government had warned that radicals might be planning attacks outside of Xinjiang.
Xinjiang borders Afghanistan and unstable Central Asian states with militant Islamic groups, and Uighurs are believed to be among militants sheltering in Pakistan's lawless northwestern region.
China says much of the violence is orchestrated by Uighur activists based in the West or in Pakistan and other neighboring countries, but has provided little evidence publicly. The U.S. initially placed one group, the East Turkistan Islamic Movement, on a terrorist watch list following the Sept. 11 attacks, but later quietly removed it amid doubts that it existed in any organized manner.
Uighur extremism is generally seen as fueled by heavy-handed Chinese rule in Xinjiang and discrimination against them by China's ethnic Han majority who make up more than 91 percent of the country's population. Many Uighurs say they face routine discrimination, irksome restrictions on their culture and Muslim religion, and economic disenfranchisement that has left them largely poor even as China's economy booms.
Uighurs say they've seen little benefit from the exploitation of Xinjiang's natural resources while good jobs tend to flow to ethnic Han migrants. The 9 million Uighurs now make up about 43 percent of the population in a region more than twice the size of Texas where they used to dominate.
They frequently say they're made to feel like second-class citizens, facing difficulties obtaining passports or even traveling outside Xinjiang. Hotels and airlines are reported to have unofficial bans on catering to Uighurs, and many employers refuse to hire them.
"Hotels won't take us and you can't rent if your ID shows a Xinjiang residence. People look at us with a lot of prejudice," said Yusuf Mahmati, 33, a Uighur fur trader plying his wares on a busy Beijing sidewalk across from a crafts and curios market.
Uighurs in Beijing say police have stepped up identity checks and other forms of scrutiny since Monday's attack, and the overseas advocacy group World Uyghur Congress on Tuesday urged caution and expressed concerns that Beijing could use the incident to demonize Uighurs as a group. A Sweden-based spokesman for the group said 93 Uighurs have been detained without charge in Beijing in security sweeps following Monday's attack.
Beijing-based Uighur economist Ilham Tohti urged the government to make public its findings if it indeed has evidence that Uighurs were involved in a terrorist attack.
This is very bad and innocent people were harmed. I certainly do not support it. But I also know that the Chinese government is harsh on religious and ethnic groups.

Cheney defends NSA surveillance
Critics of the National Security Agency's surveillance programs are wrong in their views because terror threats persist, former Vice President Dick Cheney said Sunday.
Cheney was deeply involved in revamping national security programs after Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack and defended those efforts in an interview on "Fox News Sunday."
Critics like Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) are wrong to be upset about the surveillance programs because there are real threats against the United States, Cheney insisted. "The reason we got into it was because we've been attacked, worse attack than Pearl Harbor," Cheney said. "The worry is the next attack…Sooner or later there will be another attack and they will have deadlier weapons."
After the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, Cheney said, "We made the decision based on 9/11 that we no longer had a law enforcement problem, we are at war. And Congress, in fact, authorizes the president to use military force to deal with the crisis."
And, he said, "that puts you in the category of using your military assets, your intelligence assets and so forth to protect the country against another attack. And when you consider somebody smuggling a nuclear device into the United States, it becomes very important to gather intelligence on your enemies and stop that attack before it ever gets launched."

Bisons in full support of Schwinden
A near-cycle by Jason Botts, four Nick Evans hits and a quality start by Chris Schwindenhelped the Bisonseven the series with a game two 9-1winover the Bulls Tuesday night in Durham.
Buffalo jumped on Bulls starter Lance Cormier early, benefitting from a pair of Durham mistakes.
After Luis Figueroa reached on an error by Durham second baseman Felipe Lopez and a Michael Fisher single, Cormier balked in the game's first run. Buffalo took a second run when Valentino Pascuccihit into a double play with Fisher on second and Zach Lutz, who singled, on first.
Figueroa again reached on an error in the second, when Cormier's errant toss to first hit him in the back before the Buffalo shortstop reached second base. Cormier was also credited with a fielding error before the throw, but escaped the inning with a diving stop by first baseman Russ Canzlerfor a ground out by Fisher.
Nick Evans made it a 3-0 lead, driving in Bottsafter he lined a double off the "blue monster" wall in left field. After a 4-for-5 night, Evans has eight multi-hit games in his last 11. Jesus Feliciano drove in Evans with a single to give Schwindena four-run cushion.
Schwinden cruised with three hitless innings before three singles and a sacrifice fly by Canzlercut the lead to 4-1 in the fourth. He allowed just that run, three hits and a walk over six innings, striking out three.
Cormier left after four innings, his longest start as a Bull, allowing four runs (only one earned) on six hits with three strikeouts and a walk.
Cormier's reliever, Ryan Reid, allowed an RBI triple to Bottsand Evans' third single, scoring Bottsin the fifth.
With a seventh-inning solo shot, Bottshit just a single shy of the cycle. Bottsflew out to center field in a nine-pitch battle with Mike Eckstromin his final plate appearance.
Lutz sealed the game with a two-run homer in the ninth, his second bomb of the series.
Game Notes: Fisher takes his hit streak to 15 games, the longest active stretch in the International League… Schwinden(4-3) took the win for the first time since May 16 after two losses and three no-decisions… Ryotapitched scoreless seventh and eighth innings before John Lujan closed out the ninth.

The 1983 laserdisc classic Dragon's Lair will follow its cousin Space Ace to the iPhone; Electronic Arts is handling the port. Now you can enjoy Dirk the Daring's inquisitive grunting and Princess Daphne's coquettish cooing in a convenient portable format.
The game will feature an arcade mode, faithful to the content of the original cabinet game, and a home mode that includes extra scenes. Space Ace, the other Don Bluth animated game on the iPhone/iPod Touch, was $4.99. No word on price point here, and delivery is listed as just "December 2009."
Man, I remember this thing cost 50 CENTS. You whippersnappers probably have no idea what balls it took for an arcade game to charge that in 1983. I never beat it in the arcades but I did 15 years later on a port to the Mac - after dying about 80 times. On the first board.
Lead on, adventurer ... your quest awaits!

I still dont understand, what you are messing aroung - of course phpmyadmin provides this functionality as well. Instead of browsing thru all your records, click the "Search" button in the top menu, you will receive a form, which shows ALL fields of your choosen table, you may specify any values, any special functionts, whatever you want for each field and finally hit "Submit" and phpmyadmin will show you all records, which matches your criterias. YOu may then even use grid edit / inline edit or hit "edit" to enter data in an appropriate form.
You dont have to write your own code, phpmyadmin is a very sophisticated tool and you really can do everything with this tool, what you are looking for. It is the "swiss army knife" of MySQL.
Nobbie wrote:OrcaSoul wrote:The result is, searching for the name isn't the fastest way to go - and yes, I can sort the list, but it's still a nuisance when dealing with many bowls.
Because you are searching "manually" (this is indeed a bad idea). Why dont you simply search with MySQL (Select.... Where bowlname = "...." or similar)? MySQL provides not only Metacharacters for Search, it also supports regular expressions.
You may also define an index for the column which holds the names, which makes the search very fast. For columns of type TEXT you may also define a "FULLTEXT" Index, which is a special MySQL Feature.
OK, let me put it this way - at my age, 71, and with my eyesight not the best due to being very nearsighted - I find a cluttered screen like phpMyAdmin hard to read, mostly because of the small font and the confusion of so many things to look at - which can be distracting.
But it is mostly just a matter of my choice. Since I am the only one who will use this, that is my prerogative. You can disagree with how I do this, but don't argue that I am doing it wrong...
Thing is, I prefer a single subject form to do this kind of work - I always have.
I start the script, and enter the name of the bowl:

In case anyone is interested, the power is back on at my winter home in Florida following Hurricane Irma. Even better, the air conditioning is now working! (Hooray!)
The power was out for 6 days in my neighborhood. Cable television and Internet access started working a few hours after the power was restored. We had no water for two days. My neighbors tell me the (wired) telephone service still doesn't work but cellular phones have worked more or less perfectly during the entire time. (I don't have a wired telephone so I don't miss it.) I have been using my cellular phone's data capabilities to access the Internet and to send and receive email during the time I have been here.
The damage to my house was minor. Everything was repaired within a couple of hours after spending about $20. Some of my neighbors were not so lucky.
One bit of advice: If you depend upon a cellular phone for use when wired phones are out of service, make sure you have a good method of charging the cell phone MULTIPLE TIMES, if needed. You can purchase any number of batteries that will recharge cell phones but my preferred method is to have a power cable that connects the cell phone to the power outlet in your automobile's dashboard. You can charge a cell phone several times with an automobile battery without depleting the automobile battery.
One caveat: make sure your dashboard power outlet will work even when the engine is switched off. Most automobiles will do that or else they have a powered USB connector someplace designed to plug in a cell phone or an iPod. However, there are a few exceptions. I suggest you verify your automobile's power availability long BEFORE you have an emergency.
Of course, here is my "secret weapon" for charging cell phones, blowing up tires, starting automobiles that have a dead battery, blowing up beach balls, and a number of other uses:
Notice the two USB connectors near the bottom left of the device. They will charge cell phones, iPads, iPods, or anything else that is charged by USB. The battery in this thing will charge a cell phone dozens of times plus the "portable power" unit has many other uses as well. I strongly recommend one of these and suggest you keep it charged at all times. You can buy them from a number of manufacturers. I have seen them for sale on Amazon as well as from Wal-Mart, Sears Auto Centers, some hardware stores, and most all auto parts stores.

Book of Saints – Alexis
(Alexius) (Saint) Confessor (July 17) (5th century) The only son of a Roman Senator, whom desire to avoid the fascinations of the world, impelled to fly from his home and promised bride on his wedding day, and to set sail for Asia Minor. On his arrival there he made his way to Edessa, where for many years he lived in the greatest poverty and busied himself in prayer and good works. Dreading the veneration in which he began to be held on account of his holy life, he journeyed to the coast and embarked in a vessel bound for Tarsus. But, after many mishaps at sea, he was at length cast ashore on the coast of Italy, his native country, and so returned to Rome. Acting on a Divine impulse, he there sought shelter in his father's house, in a shed adjoining which he was suffered to live and die, disguised as a poor mendicant, without his identity being discovered. After his decease, a written paper was found in his possession, giving particulars of his life and of the motives which had induced him to act as he had done. Pope Innocent I and the Emperor Honorius are said to have been present at his obsequies and at his burial in the Church of Saint Boniface, erected close to his father's mansion (A.D. 404). The many miracles wrought at his intercession led to his being honoured as a Saint.

On This Date in History: At this point in the winter season, data from the National Snow Analysis reveals that 49% of the nation is covered in snow. Last month, that total was 44.8% but, in between, I've noted some days where the snow cover was as high as 70%. We are in a weather pattern that has been persistent with a general ridge in the west and a trof down through the front range of the Rockies or through the midwest. While there have been some big storms on the West Coast, most of the action seems to be riding up the northern part of the Rockies and then down deep, often way deep, into the South with the base of the mean trof generally in the heart of Dixie. The mean long wave has been such that it tends to take storms just off the East Coast. The East Coast has dodged a bullet for the most part because, while there have been a couple of big boppers nail New England, much of the Eastern Seaboard has missed out on several systems that, had they been about 100 miles further west, would have buried the I-95 corridor from North Carolina to Maine. It's pretty cold now but a super cold outbreak has for the most part been avoided. While some records have no doubt been set, certainly no one has come close to all-time low temperatures recorded in history.
Back in late 1970, there was a big high pressure ridge situated over Hawaii but, by early 1971, that big ridge shifted to the East. A new mean ridge set up over the Bering Sea and created a strong blocking pattern over the Central Pacific. Northerly flow across the Bering Sea remained persistent but the southern part of the December trof moved east to set up a strong, broad cyclonic circulation across the Mississippi Valley to the Atlantic. All of Alaska was much colder than average that January with Fairbanks, Alaska not getting above 22 F degrees below zero for 18 consecutive days, which is a record for such cold of such duration. The record-setting cold month in Fairbanks resulted in an average temperature for that month in that city of 31.7 F degrees below zero.
About 200 miles Northwest of Fairbanks and 25 miles Southeast of Bettles, AK, one will find tiny Prospect Creek, Alaska. It was first settled as a mining camp in the gold rush days. Most notably, a camp was built there for the builders of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline in 1974. The near ghost town was transformed into the residence for some 27,000 workers and to serve pipeline station number 5. There is not much at the location and the camp was little more than housing with some washrooms. When the pipeline was completed in 1977, Prospect Creek was once again abandoned, though in 1992 it did serve as a base of operations for some people working on the rebuilding of a bridge along the Dalton Highway. Not only did it serve to house workers but also their families and I'm sure that mom was happy to bring the kids along to live in the wilderness north of the Arctic circle at about 67 degrees North Latitude. It's so far north and so cold that it's really more or less a desert as it only gets between 0 and 10 inches of precipitation per year. June and July aren't too bad with average highs of 71 and 73 respectively. But, January and February average highs are 2 and 10 degree respectively and 6 months out of the year, the average high is below freezing. In spite of the cold, you can find Black and Brown bears in the area as well as Bald Eagles. But, you probably won't find Sarah Palin wandering about as it's about 530 miles North of the former governor's home town of Wasilla.
Aside from all of this, it's tough to find much about Prospect Creek and most likely would not be found anywhere on the internet or in encyclopedia's if it were not what happened there on January 23, 1971. The big fat ridge that parked itself over the region in January 1971 and brought Fairbanks such frigid conditions affected the entire state. I suspect that the center of the high pressure ridge must have moved directly over Prospect Creek because, on this date in 1971, the mercury at Prospect Creek, Alaska fell all the way to 79.8F degrees below zero, giving it the record for the coldest temperature ever recorded in the United States. For all of North America, the low that day is second only to Snag, Yukon Territory, Canada that hit minus 81F degrees on February 3, 1947. But, Snag's elevation is 2100 ft while Prospect Creek is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1000 feet above sea level.
Mt. Washington, NH has the distinction of having the lowest annual mean temperature of 26.5F and the lowest mean summer temperature (51.6F) in the lower 48. In 1954, a big old 1070mb high settled in over Montana and on January 20, the temperature at Rogers Pass in Lewis and Clark County fell to -69.7F to set the coldest temperature ever recorded in the lower 48 states. Rogers Pass sits about 150 feet below the Continental Divide at around 6000 ft in elevation. It's interesting that just 11 days before, the lowest temperature on the Greenland Icecap was recorded at -86.6 degrees. That is nothing compared to the all-time planet low temperature of -128.6F on July 21, 1983 at the Amundsen-Scott Station,which is just a few hundred yards from the geographic South Pole in Antarctica. With all of this, it's no wonder that Prospect Creek has zero population today. But, you can mail a letter there, if you like. The zip code is 99726. I suppose the postal carrier that gets that mail-route is being punished because "nor rain, nor snow, nor dead of night" does not include "nor 79 degrees below zero." By the way, in case you are interested, you can take a tour that includes Prospect Creek. I might suggest June or July.
Weather Bottom Line: Well…after reading all of that, you should feel down-right warm. Maybe not. We have a hint of a warm up in the week ahead but it's not much of a hint and it won't last long. First, we have a little disturbance wandering across that is damping out, or weakening so we may have some snow showers today and tomorrow. Then another system comes across the south and an accompanying disturbance coming out of the midwest will also get damped out so we may have some snow showers Tuesday and Wednesday too but I don't think it will be all that terrific. We warm up slightly to the mid 30's by the end of the week and may even hit 40 on Saturday but that's about it because on Sunday, we're back down to highs in the 20's. Break out the tanning butter on Saturday.

Having worked together on one of 2010's best films writer-director Derek Cianfrance and actor Ryan Gosling have begun cooking up another project.
"I have a film called 'The Place Beyond the Pines,' which is all about fathers and guns, and it has motorcycles and guns in it," Cianfrance told The Hollywood Reporter. "One thing I wanted to do with 'Blue Valentine' was to make a really violent film without guns in it. The next one will have guns, so it will be easier. No studio yet. We're in the middle of financing it right now."
If you've seen "Blue Valentine," you know what he means by "violent," it is an emotionally harrowing tale that plumbs the depth of love can turn to cruelty. In fact the film is so raw at times that its distributor, The Weinstein Company, is engaged in a heated legal battle to get its rating change from NC-17 to R.
U.S. & World
"I haven't really met anyone who thinks that [NC-17] rating is just. We are still fighting it and hoping it can be changed to an 'R,' said Cianfrance.
"Bottom line is we are not changing the movie out of respect. The movie is this movie ... it has no harm in it. It is about loving, intimacy, care and emotions. It is the intangibles of emotion and intimacy you don't see that got us the rating. If you take those out, that's the heart of the movie."
"Blue Valentine" opens Dec. 31.

I have an iPad application which sends some data to our web application. With this data, you should be able to do different kind of things.
We have cucumber tests for the web application (Using cucumber, capybara and selenium) and few others for the ipad application (Using Frank).
I'm not sure how to approach testing both things at the same time. The ideal thing would be to put them both together as a cucumber test, but it doesn't seem trivial to me.
On the other hand, simulating the data sent from iPad would be easier, but not as reliable.
How do you test applications that mix both web and ios application?

This week on View from the Gutters, our topic work is Revival, by Tim Seeley and Mike Norton:
For one day in rural central Wisconsin, the dead came back to life. Now it's up to Officer Dana Cypress to deal with the media scrutiny, religious zealots, and government quarantine that has come with them. In a town where the living have to learn to deal with those who are supposed to be dead, Officer Cypress must solve a brutal murder, and everyone, alive or undead, is a suspect.
Revival is an excellent entry into the emerging genre of small-town supernatural horror stories, and contains more twists and reveals that readers might expect on first read.
In our recommendation section our hosts nominated The Authority, Vol. 1, Daredevil: Born Again, Suburban Glamour, Batman: The Long Halloween, Godzilla: The Half-Century War for discussion on the next episode, and our selected title is The Authority, Vol. 1.
Our hosts for this episode were Andrew Chard, Joe Preti, Eric Manix, Tobiah Panshin, and Cade Reynolds.

NBC's Chuck Todd examines the White House's attempt to take control of the IRS scandal, saying if the public thinks the government has lost control on the IRS front, then the Obama administration will have more difficulty in implementing new policies.
President Barack Obama said Wednesday that he was "angry" at IRS officials who inappropriately targeted conservative groups for scrutiny, announcing that his administration had sought and accepted Steven Miller's resignation as interim commissioner of the IRS.
"I've reviewed the Treasury Department watchdog's report, and the misconduct that it uncovered was inexcusable," Obama said in a statement at the White House. "It's inexcusable, and Americans are right to be angry about it, and I'm angry about it."
The president said that he expected the IRS to act with even higher levels of integrity than other government agencies and that, to that end, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew had sought and accepted Miller's resignation — something many Republicans had demanded.
A great deal of what IRS has said regarding the targeting scandal was proven to be incomplete or flat out wrong prompting genuine outrage among both Democrats and Republicans. House Speaker John Boehner is now asking who is going to go to jail over this as the IRS continues to blame targeting of conservatives on a few rogue employees. Now Attorney General Holder has promised an investigation to see if IRS employees broke the law. NBC's Lisa Myers reports.
Obama also pledged to work with Congress in its emerging investigation into the controversy, pledging his administration would work "hand in hand with Congress" to further its oversight. But the president also cautioned lawmakers to conduct their probe "in a way that doesn't smack of politics or partisan agendas."
"If the President is as concerned about this issue as he claims, he'll work openly and transparently with Congress to get to the bottom of the scandal — no stonewalling, no half-answers, no withholding of witnesses," the top Republican senator, Kentucky's Mitch McConnell, said in a statement.
The president said as well that he thought the problems at the IRS were "fixable," and he directed Lew to implement the IRS inspector general's recommendations.
Lew said in a statement that it was "clear that the IRS needs new leadership to restore public trust and confidence."
Saying he won't tolerate this sort of behavior from an agency, especially the IRS, President Barack Obama announces the resignation of the acting IRS commissioner and the implementation of measures to prevent such activity again.
"As the president noted, this type of misconduct at any agency, but especially the IRS, is inexcusable and unacceptable. And I will not tolerate it," he said.In an internal email to employees, Miller said he would be staying on until early June to help with an orderly transition.
Obama's remarks came amid news that two IRS employees who had engaged in activities targeting conservative groups had faced disciplinary action for their conduct.
The inspector general's release Monday found that incompetence and ineffective management at the tax-collecting agency led to employees' applying extra scrutiny to conservative and Tea Party advocacy groups. The report also found there was no evidence of outside pressure on officials to target conservative groups.
Pablo Martinez Monsivais / AP
President Barack Obama makes a statement on the IRS' targeting of conservative groups for extra scrutiny in the East Room of the White House in Washington, Wednesday, May 15.
Still, the revelation has prompted an uproar among Republicans, who have openly suggested that the Obama administration might have used the IRS to target its political opponents.
"My question isn't about who's going to resign," House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said at a weekly press conference on Capitol Hill. "My question is who's going to jail in this scandal."
Democrats have largely joined their Republican colleagues in expressing outrage toward the IRS employees' actions, and Obama himself condemned the agency Monday, calling the targeting of conservative groups "outrageous" and vowing to hold those responsible accountable.
"I'll do everything in my power to make sure that nothing like this ever happens again, by holding the responsible parties accountable, by putting in place new checks and new safeguards, and, going forward, my making sure the law is applied as it should be — in a fair and impartial way," Obama said.

ALBANY TOWNSHIP, Pa. (WFMZ/CNN) - A Pennsylvania mother faces charges in relation to the hanging deaths of her 8-year-old son and 4-year-old daughter after she allegedly used the internet to help plan the crimes.
Lisa Snyder, 36, was arrested Monday morning on two counts each of first- and third-degree murder as well as two felony counts of endangering the welfare of children, according to court documents.
The mother is accused of killing two of her three children, 8-year-old Conner and 4-year-old Brinley Snyder, and trying to frame the deaths as a murder-suicide.
"She had expressed to a friend that she had had enough," said Berks County District Attorney John Adams during a news conference. "I don't think that I can stand up here, nor can anyone, and explain the horrific loss of two innocent children's lives. I think it goes without explanation."
Previously released court documents show Snyder reported finding her children hanging from a support beam Sept. 23 in the basement of their Albany Township, Pennsylvania, home. The unresponsive victims were flown to the hospital, where they were taken off life support Sept. 26.
The Lehigh County coroner later ruled both deaths as homicide.
State police say Snyder told them Conner was being bullied at school and wanted to die but was scared to commit suicide alone, but documents say Conner "never expressed that he was bullied or suicidal."
"It would be safe to say that we immediately had questions," Adams said. "There was no evidence of bullying whatsoever that we were able to obtain."
Detectives reviewed Snyder's internet search history in the days leading up to her children's deaths.
Court documents reveal searched phrases included "carbon monoxide in a car how long to die," "I almost got away with it best episodes," "hanging yourself" and "does a hybrid car produce carbon monoxide while idling."
Adams says Snyder also visited a hanging instructional website.
"It all hits us in the heart," he said. "Two children's lives were lost here. This was a very emotional investigation for all of those involved."
Snyder is being held without bail at the Berks County Jail. Her next court date has not yet been set.
Adams says his office has not decided whether it will pursue the death penalty.
The investigation remains active, but Adams says there will be no additional arrests.

Hey guys,
If you saw my post earlier, I'm making a recipe book. It'll basically create recipes (that the user enters stuff for) then you can search for them and stuff.
My problem is that when I search for something (by entering "search" then "title") after I've created a recipe, it comes up with a null pointer exception:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at RecipeBookMain.SearchTitle(RecipeBookMain.java:158 )
at RecipeBookMain.SearchFor(RecipeBookMain.java:132)
at RecipeBookMain.RunCommand(RecipeBookMain.java:56)
at RecipeBookMain.main(RecipeBookMain.java:22)
Here is my RecipeBookMain:
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
public class RecipeBookMain { static boolean hasRunBefore = false; static Recipe[] recipes = new Recipe[99]; static int currentRecipeNumber = 0; /* This Number is always 1 less than the actual number of recipes */ static Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException { BufferedReader saveFile = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("Recipe Number.txt")); /* Debug */ currentRecipeNumber = saveFile.read(); //System.out.print(currentRecipeNumber); /* End Debug */ System.out.print("Welcome to RBook!

It will then ask if you would like to search for names or tags.

Am I mis-referencing or something? Am I missing something?
Thanks guys.

The federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, as amended in 2008, and other federal laws -- including, without limitation, Sections 504 and 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 -- prohibit discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities as students, job applicants, employees, and users of public accommodations and services at the University of Georgia (UGA). These laws also require that UGA's programs, services and activities, when viewed in their entirety, be readily accessible to and usable by qualified individuals with disabilities and require that UGA make reasonable modifications to its policies, practices, and procedures to give equal access to qualified individuals with disabilities. See:
- UGA Notice of Provision and Applicability of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act.
- UGA Faculty, Staff and Job Applicants with Disabilities and related Policy Memorandum
The University of Georgia's Non-Discrimination and Anti-Harassment Policy ("NDAH Policy") likewise prohibits discrimination and harassment of individuals with disabilities within the University Community.
An individual with a disability is a person who has:
- a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities (e.g., walking, eating, breathing, sleeping, major bodily functions, etc.), OR
- a record of such impairment, OR
- who is regarded as having such impairment.
To be qualified, an individual with a disability must meet the basic skill, education, training or other eligibility requirements of the relevant job or academic program, and must be able to perform the essential functions of the relevant job or academic program, either with or without reasonable accommodation. In other words, employment or academic standards are not lowered for persons with disabilities.
Some examples of reasonable accommodations include, but are not limited to:
- Reasonable modifications to rules, policies, or practices (e.g., adjusting exam times or methods, modified work schedule)
- Removal of architectural, communication, or transportation barriers
- Provision of assistive technology and auxiliary aids and services (e.g., interpreters, readers, note-takers)
- Modification of equipment or devices
How UGA students with disabilities can request accommodations
The University of Georgia is committed to providing equal educational opportunities to all students who qualify for admission, and offers qualifying students with disabilities a variety of services and accommodations to ensure that both facilities and programs are accessible. The University's Disability Resource Center (DRC) exists to assist students with requesting and coordinating reasonable accommodations and to connect students with the appropriate resources and supports to ensure a welcoming and accessible educational experience. This includes during orientation and campus visits.
To talk with a DRC coordinator about requesting accommodations or to schedule an intake interview, students should contact the DRC at (706) 542-8719 or (706) 542-8778 (tty) or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Students can also begin the accommodations process by visiting the DRC's Register for Services page.
In evaluating requests for accommodations, the DRC will take into consideration, without limitation, self-reports, records of past accommodations and services from high school and other colleges, formal psychological or medical evaluations, and letters from health service providers. Documentation guidelines for specific categories of disabilities are available on the DRC's website.
For further information on accommodations, services and resources for students and other University community members with disabilities, please visit the DRC's website.
How UGA employees and job applicants with disabilities can request accommodations
University employees and job applicants may request accommodations by contacting UGA Human Resources' Faculty and Staff Relations at (706) 542-9756. Current employees may also request accommodations by completing the Employee Accommodation Request Form and returning it to:
University of Georgia
Human Resources, Faculty & Staff Relations
315 S. Thomas Street
Athens, GA 30602
A request for accommodation can be made at any point in the hiring and employment process (i.e., at the application stage, during the hiring interview, after an offer is made, after starting employment). The right to ask for accommodation is not waived because not requested at the application or hiring stage.
There are no "magic words" for what constitutes a request for an accommodation and the request need not initially be made in writing. Moreover, the request can come from a third party, such as the applicant or employee's family member or medical provider. If the disability is not obvious, the applicant or employee can be required to provide reasonable (i.e., not unduly burdensome) documentation from a health care professional of the disability and how it affects the applicant's or employee's functioning.
Once a request for accommodation is made, and documentation is provided (if the disability is non-obvious), the University will engage in an interactive process with the person with a disability to determine if s/he can reasonably be accommodated to enable him/her to perform the essential job functions, and timely provide any such reasonable accommodations.
Where more than one method or type of reasonable accommodation exists, the preference of the person with a disability will be considered but the University is ultimately the decision-maker as to what method or type of accommodation is provided, so long as it is effective.
Appeals of employee requests for disability accommodations are handled by the Equal Opportunity Office which houses the Disability Coordinator for the University.
For further information, please visit UGA Human Resources' "Disability services and accommodations" webpage.
How guests and visitors with disabilities can request accommodations
Guests and visitors at the University of Georgia who need accommodations should contact the University department or office that is hosting or coordinating the relevant activity or event to request the specific accommodation(s) needed. Guests and visitors may also contact the Equal Opportunity Office which houses the Disability Coordinator for the University.
Guest and visitor requests for accommodation(s) are encouraged to be made in as much advance of the relevant activity or event as possible.
Text telephone users may route inquiries through the Georgia Relay Center at 711.
Additional information on disability accommodations, services and resources
For further information on disability accommodations, services and resources for University community members, please visit UGA's Disability Resource Center's webpage, which includes a list of Campus Resources, and the Equal Opportunity Office's Disability Services and Disability Discrimination webpages.

Hal Pilger's St. Louis Rams notebook
By Hal Pilger
Gatehouse News Service
A month ago, it would have been a ridiculous statement. At this point, it's an indication of a desperate situation.
"Our goal is to be 1-3," St. Louis Rams coach Scott Linehan insists in the wake of last Sunday's 24-3 debacle at Tampa Bay, a devastating loss that made the Rams 0-3.
When it is pointed out that only five teams in the history of the NFL have started 0-3 and reached the postseason, Linehan says, "All that stuff, and where we are . . . we've got to get to 1-3.
"All the scenarios, or where we were last year, don't mean anything now, because we're sitting here 0-3. Last year we were 2-1 at this time (and finished 8-8). This is a new year, and we've got to keep choppin' away at it.
"And the only way we can do that is to get ready to win this next football game. Obviously, playing Dallas (3-0 and one of only five unbeaten NFL teams) on the road is a pretty tough task. But that's got to be where we're at."
Additional injuries to an already depleted offensive unit further complicate an already daunting task for a team averaging just 10.7 points per game. Dallas is averaging 38.7.
A torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, plus cartilage damage, means left guard Mark Setterstrom has joined line mate Orlando Pace out for season. Pace recently had surgery to repair injuries to the rotator cuff and labrum of his right shoulder.
Also on Sunday, running back Steven Jackson suffered a partially torn groin muscle late in his first 100-yard rushing game of the season and will miss at least today's game against the Cowboys, probably more And quarterback Marc Bulger was limited in what he could do because of two broken ribs, suffered a week earlier against San Francisco.
Yet Linehan still saw some bright spots in his team's third straight loss.
"I know the score doesn't indicate it, but we were right there," Linehan said. "It may not look like it, but I feel very, very good about how we planned this football game, stayed with it, even when it's easy to get away from it.
"(Jackson) is a great football player, a great back, and he ran hard. And our guys were blocking and playing hard. We were able to control a lot of things, but that's only so good if you don't put points on the board. If we don't turn the football over and we score, that game's a lot closer, in my opinion.
"We're working hard at it. We're spending a lot of extra time making up for areas that we need to make up for. But the bottom line is, it's not good enough, and I acknowledge that 100 percent. We're certainly not getting it done.
"We're not seeing the dividends of our hard work yet. There's a lot that needs to be improved. We've got to do better."
n RAMS RIDDLE: Bulger, with 96 touchdown passes, needs three more to move into fifth place on the Rams' all-time career touchdown completions list. Who would he pass? Answer below.
n LEONARD GETS SHOT: With Jackson shelved, Linehan said Brian Leonard will take over in the backfield, making his first NFL start.
Leonard netted 21 yards rushing Sunday with his first four carries of the season. During preseason games, Leonard got the bulk of the backfield work, rushing 39 times for 125 yards.
"We were pleased at how far he came along in the preseason at the tailback position," offensive coordinator Greg Olson was quoted in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "We think he'll be capable of taking over that role in Steven's absence, hopefully, for just a game."
n BETTER TO RECEIVE: The Rams-Cowboys game will feature three of the most productive wide receivers in NFL history — the Rams' Isaac Bruce and Torry Holt and the Cowboys' Terrell Owens.
All three rank in the top 25 in NFL history for most career receptions and in the top 20 for most career receiving yards. Bruce's 901 receptions rank seventh in NFL history and Holt's 730 rank 25th, while Owens' 817 rank 17th.
Bruce ranks seventh in all-time receiving yards with 13,555, while Owens is 14th with 12,044 and Holt is 20th with 10,885.
n GETTING DEFENSIVE: The Rams are ranked seventh in the NFL in total defense, yielding 298.3 yards per game. The Cowboys are ranked 21st at 337.
The Rams are ranked 28th in rush defense but third in pass defense, while the Cowboys are eighth in rush defense but 23rd in pass defense.
St. Louis has allowed an average of 22.7 points per game compared to Dallas' 21.7. The Cowboys have made six sacks for a loss of 50 yards, while the Rams have made five for a loss of 40.
n RIDDLE RESULT: Bulger needs three TD tosses to top Bob Waterfield for fifth place on the Rams' all-time career touchdown completions list.
n END QUOTE: Linehan, on his Rams struggling despite a core group of talented veterans: "I know we've got some guys who made the Pro Bowl last year and were All-Pro and all that, but we've got to play good football as a team. You can have the greatest football player at one position, but if we're not doing things all 11 . . . it still doesn't work."

text: Two years ago on Rays Index the shite hit the fan. First Stuart Sternberg said baseball "will not work longterm in downtown St. Pete." Then St. Pete Mayor Bill Foster said he expects the Rays to remain in downtown St. Pete until 2027. To which Sternberg responded by saying he will sell the team if there isn't any cooperation. Sternberg even went so far as to say that there are five better markets than the Tampa-St. Pete area that don't currently have teams.

Kevin Shumbera, HOU solution: "If a dimension is locked and then deleted, Revit gives you an option of leaving the constraint or removing it with the dimension. Unfortunately, if the dimension is deleted but the constraint is not removed, there will be little visible evidence of the level being locked. If this has happened, when you select the level you will see a locked symbol on the far left or right (in addition to the locked symbol referring to the ends of the level moving together)."
I checked this out and sure enough you right and applies to other objects like walls etc, thanks for the solution!
Important: Don't over constrain your model, if you not sure leave it unlocked!!
